How do I see where my space plane is when I launch it into orbit?

How far can it move in one turn while in space?

You cannot see it in space, and you can only hope where it will land before you launch it. Many have lost their shuttles. Do a search for space planes if you have any more questions.

I only lost Space planes when saving a game with them in space, just make sure all planes have landed before saving and quitting.

Cryptic answer: 1/3 of infinite.

Real answer: I think it's 15 without launching. when you launch it, it will move to the target city in 3 turns, no matter how far that city is from the starting point.

So, unless the distance from start to target is more than 45, don't launch them, just fly them.

Of course, the appear to be safe from the AI when in space (if not entirely from the wee bugs )...
